>>4158051>Random facial expressionsYes, good ones, not that. Mixed with live sports. Not an old lady standing still talking. Not just good ones, but a specific one you want, like a grimace during a tackle. This is the point where you're talking about photography as a sport rather than an art - the point where reflexes and speed become dominant over creative vision. The attitude of someone that still drives stick even though CVTs are faster, smoother, and more efficient because it gives them the illusion of having a skill.
I believe gear is invaluable in keeping photography art instead of a shutter pressing contest.
>>4158054Photography is staging and lighting the scene as much as you possibly can and editing the photo. Focus pulling and shutter timing are not photography, they are gear, and they should be automated whenever possible. Those are mook jobs for technicians, not artists.
Rather than make photography about having faster reaction times and luck, make it about what it really is about: light and composition. Let the camera handle the rest. One take one keeper every take. No accepting close enough.
